The opening portion introduces Gaspard as he reflects on his life in a dark prison cell, where he passes time reading and contemplating his circumstances. We learn that he views his criminal acts as a means of achieving justice for the oppressed, despite the moral conflicts that arise from his position as a thief. Gaspard is gradually painted as a complex character with noble aspirations in the harsh reality of life, while he also interacts with his fellow prisoners and contemplates his love for a noblewoman, all while plotting his escape. The stage is set for his adventures that intertwine personal redemption and societal critique. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
